It's not my intention to excuse said carelessness, simply to suggest a reason.

When I worked at Domino's Pizza, we once made 150 pizzas in one hour. Not one of them was returned or complained about. Why? We gave a sh*t about our work. Is your reason valid? To a degree; even if you're tired and bored, you should have pride in your work, especially if your work involves people's health and sick people's comfort.

Seriously, Tsu? You have to find a better example than that. Out of 150 pizza customers, there's only a fraction who are going to get a substandard pizza. How many of those people are actually going to call and complain about that substandard pizza, given the fact that even a perfectly executed Domino's pie bears almost no resemblance to a good pizza anyway?

Anyway, I find the opposite of Kendall - constant injections have desensitized me to needles in the extreme. I'm bothered more by the fingertip blood testing than I am by the injections in the gut. Little hint for people with chronic vein problems or who constantly have issues getting an IV in - ask for an anesthesiologist to do it.

Oooh. Low blow, dude. I think the new Domino's recipe is pretty damn good. But what do I know about pizza anyways? I emigrated from the LBC to Houston, Texas.

Anyways, I used that example because it was a job I liked, but didn't really take seriously. If medical professionals can't take their jobs seriously, they aren't professionals, IMO.

Or a phlebotomist. If such a specialist is available to you, anyways.
